2018 2019 5-yr avg
The U.S. beef cow herd continued another year of expansion on Jan. 1, 2019, as the total jumped 43,000 head, or 1%, to 31.7 million head; while the U.S. cattle and calf inventory also jumped 360,000 head.
The expansion, however, shows signs of a slowdown heading into a fifth year of inventory growth, as January’s inventory for feedlots with more than 1,000 head climbed to 11.7 million head, the highest level in seven years.
Emblematic of that continuing expansion has been the growing beef cow herd in the Central Plains. Texas’s expansion over the past five years showed a 745,000-head increase, or 19.1%, to 4.7 million beef cows. Oklahoma went up 23% in beef cows to 2.15 million head, followed by Missouri going up 239,000 head to 2 million beef cows in that same five-year span.
Production in the U.S. saw a fourth consecutive year of growth, keeping it well above any other global competitors, with 12.2 million metric tons produced. The closest competitor to the U.S., Brazil, logged in with
9.9 million metric tons. Those two countries produce 19.7% and 15.9% of the world’s beef, respectively.
Corn prices made a swing upward in 2018, and feeder calf prices made another push upward in the fall after a fairly steady line in the early part of the year.
U.S. operationsThe 2017 Ag Census that
concluded in December 2017 was released this year, and as expected, operations in the U.S. saw a 3.3% drop from five years ago, tallying 882,692 cattle operations nationwide.
Consolidation took a toll on the
smaller operations, as the 1-to-99-head segment went down 5% from the 2012 count. Those cattle were absorbed heavily by larger operations, especially those with more than 5,000 head. That segment, which represents just 0.1% of the total industry, increased 13% from five years ago. Operations with 100 to 499 head also saw a sizeable increase of 5.2% since 2012.
Global tradeU.S. beef kept its steady growth
moving forward in global exports, as the U.S. hit new high marks for both value and volume in 2018. Once again, East Asian nations were sparking the
bulk of the popularity, as Japan spent $2 billion on U.S. beef, followed by South Korea in second with $1.7 billion, Hong Kong was third in value with $965.7 million, and Taiwan in sixth, spending $550.3 million.
For the second consecutive year, Canada topped Australia as the top partner sending beef to the U.S., as our northern neighbor sent 277,472 metric tons worth $1.47 billion in export value – an increase of 15% in value growth. As trade disputes flared up, Mexico’s value of purchased beef from the U.S. remained the same, and the U.S. imported 9% less from Mexico than in 2017.
Oklahoma South Korea CanadaOklahoma showed continuing resurgence in its rebuilding stage from the 2011 drought, as it grew 23% from 2014 to 2019 in its beef cow herd.
Exports to South Korea boomed in 2018, with 30% more volume in beef and variety meat, and 43% more value, for a total of $1.7 billion in value sent.
Canada made a significant jump for the second straight year, outpacing the world in exports to the U.S. Imports to the U.S. jumped 16% in 2018.
